In a patient with foreign-body granulomas, dog hairs were identified as the causative agent by combing history, histopathology and highly sensitive detection of species-specific canine mitochondrial DNA. Granulomas from human hair are well known in hairdressers. Animal hair granulomas have so far been only described in dog groomers, milkers, and shearers. To the best of our knowledge this patient represents the first described case of dog hair granulomas in a pet owner.
在一名患有异物肉芽肿的患者中,通过梳理病史、组织病理学检查以及对物种特异性犬线粒体DNA的高度敏感检测,确定狗毛为致病因素。美发师中因人类毛发导致的肉芽肿很常见。迄今为止,动物毛发肉芽肿仅在宠物美容师、挤奶工和剪羊毛工中有所描述。据我们所知,该患者是首例被描述的宠物主人患狗毛肉芽肿的病例。
